Can you control it?
Sometimes
Sometimes. Your choices depend on the tool and your access. The settings available to an everyday user may differ from those available to the people running it.
Common questions
- Does a score measure the full value of someone's work?
- No. It may leave out background information, collaboration or work that is not easily observed.
- Can important work happen without many clicks?
- Yes. Planning, thinking, conversation and helping colleagues may leave little trace in activity records.
- Can workers change behavior just to improve the score?
- Yes. People may prioritize visible activity over useful work if the measure rewards it.
